Chapter 424: Looking at the Crab Pond
The next day.
Zhou Xiaoying got up late for a long time, and after glancing at the clock, she nervously put on her underwear and looked at Li Duoyu with a resentful expression.
Li Duoyu, who was woken up, said casually: "It's all over here, it's definitely too late, just sleep a little longer." ”
"There's still ten minutes left, and if you ride a bike, you should be in time."
She didn't eat breakfast, simply tied a ponytail, and rode Li Duoyu's 28 bar to Dandandao Primary School.
After so many years of teaching, she has never been late.
Xiaoying didn't know how to ride before, but now she can ride so slippery, she just can't wear a skirt, and when she left, she didn't forget to advise:
"Remember to feed Tutu for breakfast."
"Ride slowly."
Looking at Xiaoying wearing trousers, Li Duoyu felt that it was better to wear a skirt, of course, the most important thing was convenience, after all, the metal zipper in this era was really difficult to use, and it was often stuck.
After Li Duoyu got up, he looked at Xiao Tutu who couldn't help but want to go out to play, and asked, "What breakfast do you want to eat?" ”
Little Tutu replied, "Eat delicious." ”
"That's okay, dad will show you a hand and cook something delicious."
Li Duoyu ran directly into the chicken pen and took out two eggs that were still warm.
A-Niang shouted: "Take the one on the left, there is already a chicken fetus on the right." ”
"Got it."
After hearing that there was a chicken fetus, Li Duoyu suddenly remembered that when he was in Ludao, a student from Zhangzhou brought him a "delicacy" called salt chicken fetus.
If you don't look at it, it's delicious, but if you look at it carefully, you'll feel a little burdened.
I directly made a scrambled egg with dried radish for Xiao Tutu, this thing is very delicious, fresh, fragrant and delicious.
Even as a cook, Li Duoyu has a soft spot for this dish of rice, and whenever he doesn't know what to eat, he directly has a dried radish omelette.
Xiao Chubby Dun, Zhang Lin, and Zhang Yun all went to class, so there was no one to play with Xiao Tutu, so they could only play alone in the courtyard.
Because it is an island, many of the buildings have a gap.
In order to prevent Xiao Tutu from falling, Lao Li directly fenced the courtyard so that Tutu would not run out.
But he couldn't get out, and the chickens and ducks in the courtyard were pitiful.
Now Tutu's favorite toy is the male duck that often sneaks out, and once it escapes, it will definitely be chased by Tutu all over the courtyard.
Once caught by Xiao Tutu, he will often hold the duck's neck directly, and then drag it to play, and sometimes, he will ride directly on it.
And the favorite is the fluff of the duck's belly, anyway, none of the ducks at home are complete.
Occasionally, the male duck will resist and spread his wings to peck at Tutu, and every time the duck resists, Ah Niang will come out with a stick.
"You dead duck, you want to rebel, if you dare to bite, I will slaughter you during the New Year, worship my grandfather."
……
After Li Duoyu scrambled the eggs, he remembered the clove fish that Director Liu asked him to catch the day before yesterday.
If it is made into canned clove fish, it is definitely an artifact for rice, and I feel that few children can refuse that kind of side dish, which is much better than kelp shreds, mustard, and meat floss.
And it is also very nutritious, it can supplement calcium for children, when Director Liu told him about this kind of fish, Li Duoyu thought about whether to cooperate with Director Liu to jointly develop a canned lilac fish brand.
In the end, I think about it, I can't do these breeding industries at hand, and I really can't open up new markets.
After the dried radish omelette was ready, Li Duoyu beckoned Xiao Tutu, who was holding the duck, to come over for dinner.
But after calling several times, he refused to come over at all, Li Duoyu had no choice but to put him in the bamboo dining chair for the child.
But as soon as he put it in, Xiao Tutu resisted in various ways, thinking that he would struggle out, it was easy to cook, but it was difficult to feed the child.
Even if his food was delicious, Tutu refused to take a bite, and his mouth was always tightly closed.
Li Duoyu only fed a few mouthfuls of rice after five minutes, and Xiao Tutu even knocked over the porridge.
At this point, Li Duoyu's brows were already wrinkled, and his irritable mood was brewing, and he really wanted to take the thin bamboo pole.
It's easy to cook, but it's too difficult to feed the child, Li Duoyu feels that in the final analysis, it still makes his life too good, remembering the time when he was still receiving work.
They have to cut an egg into five pieces, and they have to eat it secretly, and they have to add some water before frying the egg, so that the fried egg will be bigger.
"My lord, such a delicious thing, can you enjoy your face and eat two bites, your little fat brother never needs to be fed by others."
"Don't eat, I'm going to play."
The corners of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched: "When I take out the bamboo whip, don't cry." ”
"Daddy is bad."
"You kid rebelled."
Seeing that the father and son were feeding like fighting, Chen Huiying couldn't stand it.
"Just feed it like this, the child wants to coax, I will feed it, you can go and do other things."
"A-Niang, if you spoil him too much, your personality will definitely be very bad in the future, starve him for a few meals, and see if he is willing to eat."
A-Niang said with a little anger: "You were worse than him when you were a child, I didn't repair you, be patient with the child, go busy with your business, don't worry about the child's business, the children I raise, each of them is fat and fat." ”
After Chen Huiying finished speaking, she hugged Xiao Tutu out of the bamboo dining chair.
"Grandma feeds you, your father's scrambled eggs are very fragrant and delicious."
didn't think that after changing to A-Niang, Xiao Tutu was willing to open his mouth, but A-Niang held the bowl and fed while chasing.
Li Duoyu sighed, if he really fed the child like this, he really didn't have that patience.
"It's better to have a daughter."
At that moment, Li Duoyu suddenly wanted to have another child, but unfortunately his family's situation did not allow it.
After being taken away by A-Niang, Li Duoyu had breakfast by himself, washed the dishes, and then came to the crab pond.
According to my brother-in-law, during the time I was helping to build the embankment, several of the tires of these two tractors were broken, and one of them was overhauled.
Now five crab ponds have been built, there are more than 100 acres of this, and the sixth crab pond is currently being enclosed.
After the sixth crab pond is fenced off, Li Duoyu plans to suspend the crab pond project first.
Take a look at the specific breeding situation of blue crabs, and then make the next step.
Li Duoyu glanced at the embankment and found that the mangrove trees that had been transplanted two months ago had already grown.
There are advantages to planting this thing, one is to prevent the embankment from bursting, and the other is to provide shelter for the blue crabs, the highest at the moment, which is almost a meter.
In the mangrove forest, there is a dummy at intervals, dressed in fertilizer bags, specially used to catch seabirds.
When the sea breeze blows, it makes a "popping" sound.
In addition to the dummy, Li Duoyu found that on the edge of the crab pond, a very large wooden sign was erected, which read "Lianjiang Fisheries Research Institute Crab Pond Breeding Base".
It should be erected by the uncle Chen Dongqing, after all, the two sides have signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement, as long as it is his breeding factory, the Fisheries Research Institute can set up a brand.
And this matter is beneficial to both parties, after all, they can apply for funding together.
When the time comes, the research institute will also give him a subsidy, although it is not a lot, and the entire crab pond breeding base will only give 500 yuan a year, but mosquito meat is also meat.
Coupled with kelp, oyster, and eel breeding bases, if all added up, the annual subsidy is also 2,000 yuan.
For Li Duoyu, these two thousand yuan are simply given for nothing, even if he fails to breed, he will not go hungry by relying on these two thousand yuan.
Li Duoyu walked forward for a while, and found Chen Wenchao and his brother-in-law Chen Dongqing in the third crab pond.
Chen Wenchao rowed a bamboo raft, while his brother-in-law held a shovel and threw various shellfish from a wooden bucket into the crab pond.
When his brother-in-law Chen Dongqing saw him, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "My nephew is very powerful now, and he may not be able to meet once in two months." ”
Li Duoyu smiled:
"I don't want a job at the research institute, but I finally figured it out, do you want to come and work for me?"
After seeing Brother Yu coming.
Chen Wenchao hurriedly rowed the bamboo raft to the shore, and after Chen Dongqing went ashore, he immediately asked:
"Duoyu, the cost of your blue crab breeding is too high, this blue crab doesn't eat feed, and you have to eat these snails and shellfish all year round?"
Li Duoyu replied:
"Hmm. I imitate the habits of local creatures, and if I feed them, the blue crabs will grow faster and will be less likely to get sick. ”
"But according to your raising, the cost will not go up, and when the time comes, will you still be able to make money?"
"It should be fine."
Li Duoyu smiled, and didn't plan to explain too clearly to his uncle, raising blue crabs is different from raising other seafood.
Blue crabs have to molt many times, and each molt is a disaster for blue crabs.
For blue crab farmers, the most important thing is the survival rate of blue crabs, if the blue crabs are healthy, the survival rate will be relatively high, and the farmers can finally make money.
The best blue crabs must have grown up eating all kinds of snails and shellfish, because this is in line with the living habits of blue crabs.
Since blue crabs are diurnal and nocturnal, and they are benthic, it is difficult to use trash fish as feed for blue crabs.
If you scatter the trash fish, most of them will float on the water, and the blue crabs will not dare to swim up and catch them and eat them.
At that time, if the blue crab does not come to eat, maybe it will "send the pond", and if it is not good, the bacterial outbreak will directly send away the whole pond of blue crabs.
In order to save the cost of breeding, most farmers generally cook the trash fish, mix some corn starch, and various nutrients to make a sinking feed for the blue crabs.
If you feed with feed, the cost of breeding has indeed come down, but correspondingly, the mortality rate of blue crabs may also be higher.
Because blue crabs are creatures that need calcium supplementation, once the calcium is insufficient, it is easy to fail to molt, resulting in death.
In short, Li Duoyu has been in a more Buddhist state for breeding blue crabs, and if there are conditions, they directly use shellfish and snails as bait, and if there are no conditions, they will be fed with fish.
In addition, he also heard that there is a high probability that butter crabs will appear in the blue crabs that are mostly farmed with yellow-fleshed shellfish and snail meat.
However, in the previous life, it is said that the feed such as the yellow meat clam was sold for two yuan per catty, and if you feed it with that kind of feed, if you don't raise butter crabs, you will really lose money to your grandmother's house.
Fortunately, in this era, there is really no shortage of all kinds of snails and shellfish, and the price is very low.
Now he has asked Lao Mi to help, and he has been buying all kinds of snails and shellfish at the dock for a long time.
Li Duoyu's price is four cents per catty, while the purchase price of old rice is three cents per catty, and he earns a difference of one cent.
Since Li Duoyu began to buy all kinds of miscellaneous snails and miscellaneous shellfish, the number of women and children begging Xiaohai has obviously increased.
They don't catch the tide anymore, and mainly catch all kinds of snails and shellfish, such as small cone snails, cat's eye snails, bitter snails, etc., as well as sea melon seeds, mussels, and the like.
It is said that in the first few days of acquisition, someone caught more than 200 catties of snails on the same day and earned more than six yuan.
In the end, some people even pried off the pen holder and barnacles, pulled them to sell to Lao Mi, and made him speechless.
In the end, even with Chenjia Village, there were people who carried all kinds of miscellaneous snails and miscellaneous shellfish and sold them directly to Chen Wenchao.
As long as Li Duoyu's blue crab breeding scale is not expanded, these miscellaneous snails and miscellaneous shellfish on Dandan Island are completely enough for him to raise blue crabs.
But if it is more than 200 acres, it is estimated that it is a little hanging, although the reproduction speed of miscellaneous snails and miscellaneous shells is quite fast, but it can not stand being picked by humans all the time.
Chen Dongqing looked at the more than 100 acres of crab ponds in front of him and said with emotion: "I think the cost of your investment in these ponds is so large, if you only use it to raise blue crabs, is it a bit of a waste." ”
Li Duoyu squinted his eyes and said, "Comrade Holly, do you have a better suggestion?" ”
"I'll suggest you a yarn, you're better than me, and you still need my advice."
"I don't have any good qualities in this person, I just never pretend to be forced, and I am very diligent and studious."
"Fuck off, uncle."
Chen Dongqing rubbed his waist, then sat down directly at the embankment and smoked a cigarette.
"It feels like you've been getting more and more addicted to cigarettes lately." Li Duoyu said.
"Ugh."
Chen Dongqing sighed and said: "I would have known that I wouldn't have been promoted, how good it is to be a section member, and it is really tiring to be a section chief." ”
Li Duoyu asked:
"There's a new mission up there?"
Chen Dongqing nodded, and scolded: "Ma Dan, I have studied the abalone breeding project for almost a year, and I originally wanted to apply for an abalone breeding base, but it was directly stopped, and now we have imposed a shrimp breeding task." ”
"If you stop, you will stop, maybe it's a good thing, abalone is not easy to raise, shrimp farming makes money, plus our town invested in abalone and turned a big fight, maybe, no one dares to raise it."
In this era, shrimp is considered a relatively luxurious seafood.
On the wharf alone, the purchase price of shrimp is almost one piece, and a pound of chilled shrimp outside can be sold for three pieces, and frozen shrimp can also be sold for two or three pieces.
Whereas, the nine-section shrimp is more expensive.
Chen Dongqing frowned: "But our institute, we have no breeding experience, everything has to start from scratch, damn, there are so many people in the institute, but this project fell on my head." ”
Li Duoyu said:
"If you don't have experience, I have, this time I went to Ludao to teach, and by the way, I secretly learned a lot of breeding techniques and came back."
Chen Dongqing frowned and said, "No kidding, you really know how to raise shrimp." ”
"Comrade Holly, when did I lie to you."
Li Duoyu will not tell his uncle that the original design of his crab pond was a polyculture of shrimp and crabs.
However, because there are no shrimp seedlings on the side of the Lianjiang Fisheries Research Institute, the shrimp seedlings are on the side of the Ludao Research Institute and the Zhanjiang Research Institute.
Over there, he had no acquaintances and couldn't get shrimp seedlings, which caused his shrimp and crab polyculture plan to be shelved, but he didn't think about it, and his uncle sent it directly to the door.
Chen Dongqing wrinkled his brows: "Heckled, how can you get more and more." ”
Li Duoyu imitated the leader's tone:
"Comrade Holly, you must open your horizons, don't keep thinking about burying your head in research, you must go out more and see the outside world."
"You think everyone is like you, and they often have the opportunity to go out on trips."
Li Duoyu smiled: "By the way, I told you a good thing." ”
"What good can you do?"
Li Duoyu smiled evilly: "In a few months, I may follow the leader on a business trip to Hong Kong Island, do you have anything you want to buy?" ”
"You're going to Hong Kong Island?"
"Hmm." Li Duoyu added: "If you're lucky, Xiaoying may go with me." ”
I don't know why, at this moment, Chen Dongqing's heart was very calm, and he secretly moved behind Li Duoyu.
"Grass, if you don't pretend to be forced, you'll die, right?"
Chen Dongqing kicked Li Duoyu's buttocks, wanting to kick him into the sea.
Without thinking about it, Li Duoyu dodged away.
Chen Dongqing, who kicked in the air, had an unstable center of gravity, staggered a few times, and instead threw himself into the sea and turned into a soup chicken.
Chen Wenchao on the side laughed.
Chen Dongqing, who choked on two mouthfuls of seawater, scolded: "Xiaochao, don't laugh, hurry down and save me, I can't swim." ”
"Gollum~~"
Li Duoyu had a disgusted expression: "Now that the tide is low, the depth of the water is less than two meters, so it's okay to stand up directly." ”
As soon as Li Duoyu said this, Chen Dongqing tried to stand up, but he didn't think that he really stood up, and said with a dark face: "How do you know that I am going to kick you." ”
"You are an idiot, you still have to blame me, you want to kick me, you have to shout, you really think it's the same as martial arts, before you make a move, you have to pronounce out the name of the move."
After Li Duoyu pulled his brother-in-law up, he kept retching there and scolded: "The sea water is so bitter and salty. ”
After Li Duoyu saw his downcast after falling into the water, he couldn't help it, covered his mouth and laughed.
Chen Dongqing didn't bother to be jealous, but said seriously: "If you know how to raise shrimp, then I will send the shrimp seedlings directly to you when the time comes, and we will join forces to raise them together." ”
"Yes, of course."
Li Duoyu continued: "There is another good news, do you want to hear it?" ”
"I don't want to hear it."
Li Duoyu still said: "The wind power pilot project I applied for has landed on Dandan Island, and it is estimated that there will be submarine cables coming over next year, and by then, even Chenjia Village will have electricity." ”
Chen Dongqing was stunned for a while, and thanked him very sincerely: "Thank you, my good nephew." ”
"You don't have any sincerity in thanking me, come again, you should use honorifics for me."
"I'll go, I'm your uncle, when have you ever respected me, asked me to respect you, there is no door."
Chen Wenchao on the side looked at the two bickering, with a look of envy, his father and mother left early, he was a child, and he had no other relatives.
When he really encounters things, he can often only carry them by himself, and he is bullied, and he doesn't even have relatives to help him.
He really envied Brother Yu, who had so many brothers and sisters, and an uncle of the same age.
"I'm wet, don't touch me, hurry up and find your sister to change into clean clothes, and see if she scolds you."
"Duoyu, you just let me kick you once."
"Get out."
Li Duoyu said to Chen Wenchao: "Let's go, I'll take you to make money, let's go catch a kind of fortune fish." ”
Chen Dongqing's ears instantly pricked up: "What kind of rich fish, take me with you, I can't even afford to smoke recently when I'm poor." ”
